Sandra "Sandy" Crabtree

Sandra “Sandy” Crabtree, 63, of Columbus, Ohio, passed away peacefully on October 25th, surrounded by love.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Ira and Annabelle Donahue; her sisters, Alice Hall and Bobbi Jo Murray; and her beloved grandson, Zachary Crabtree.

Sandy is survived by her daughters, Brandy (Adam) Rodriguez and Misty Crabtree; her grandchildren, Adan (Darcy) Rodriguez, Elisha (Zachary) Hooker, Adrian “Dre” Rodriguez, Cipriano “Chano” Rodriguez, Olivia Rose Crabtree, Anabel (Carson) Rodriguez, and Natalie Crabtree; and her great-grandchildren, Paislee, Dylan, Charlie, Penelope, Leo, Emery, and Willow. She also leaves behind her best friend, Candy, who shared a lifetime of laughter and memories with her.

She was a proud aunt to her beloved nieces Christina (Nicole) Donahue and Tracy Hall, as well as many great-nieces and nephews who always felt at home in her presence.

Sandy worked faithfully for over 25 years at Kenyon’s Stained Glass. She was proud, hardworking, and always ready to lend a hand. She loved family cookouts, NASCAR, her Buckeyes, and any time spent with her family — especially during Christmas, her favorite time of year. Feisty and stubborn in the best way, Sandy brought laughter and light to every gathering. She loved playing Yahtzee and would never start a game of euchre without a brand-new deck.

She will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her. Mom — we’re going to miss you down here, but we know heaven just got a little louder and a lot more fun.
